My answer to the poll was Mariah Carey.

She's something none of the others on this list (not even Beyonce) can claim: an artist. Over her last three albums, she's evolved into a genuine artist.

It's one of the most interesting things to happen in pop in the 2000s. As for Beyonce, I can say this: I am . . . Sascha Fierce IS a work of art.

I love me some Mariah Carey too – she is another one that doesn’t get the credit she deserves. In some ways I do compare her to Stevie. Both have made similar comments about the song writing process being just as important as the singing and almost as enjoyable, they just happen to be in different genres is all. When Mariah is on, she is ON. Stand out cuts from her career for me are:

Sent From Up Above, Can’t Let Go, Do You Think Of Me, Breakdown, Clown, I Only Wanted, Sunflowers for Alfred Roy, and my all time favorite Fly Like A Bird.
